That's why the Japanese had to scientifically prove the existence of glutamate receptors on the tongue and justify their traditional belief that umami is a basic taste in the first place.

That isn't so bad though because it sometimes help distinguish between certain fruits or vegetables that are pickled or dried almost as often as they are sold raw, hence the "fresh" distinction. But mostly I agree.

anyways, I heard the whole free-range chicken thing was a scam. Like it's pretty dishonest how they can get that label on chicken products by letting chickens run around "freely" in a 2x2 box, etc.

It's basically a way to get people to pay more to make themselves feel better when in reality those chickens aren't exactly running around in golden pastures.

I'm pretty new to /ck/ but let me put a massive qualifier on that.
We live in an age where you can buy cheese and the packaging reads "Flavored cheese food product".

Where whiskey can say "Whiskey flavoring, neutral spirit".

The gourmet version, generally, lets you know that they are using expensive 'real' ingredients for an increase in price.

However, then you have people like the boy scouts who mass produce chocolate covered popcorn and call it gourmet.

But that's stupid.
You're stupid.

"Piquant" is perfectly apt as it helps differentiate chili/peppercorn "heat" from actual heat as well as chili "spicy" from actual spicy, just as "minty" helps differentiate the "cool" taste associated with the various -tols (such as eucalyptol, erythritol, xylitol and, indeed, menthol) from something that's actually cool, like gazpacho.

Well, it is when it's not made authentically. Proper Irish stew fucking sucks. Water, mutton, onion and potato does not a tasty stew make.
I made mutton stock from hooves and knees, sauté some chemically tenderised mutton cubes in mutton tallow, add the stock, some potato and some pearl onions, then thicken the whole thing with a tallow-roux compounded with finely minced onion, freshly powdered caraway and freshly cracked peppercorn. Also mutton Knorr cubes instead of salt because fuck you, that's why. Pretty sure it's not meant to be thickened, but it'd otherwise be more soup than stew, no?
